Panchathantram Review

All said, the natural performances are appealing. There is no attempt at sanitizing and it's one segment where elders are not hunky dory....

Monster Review

The first hour is plotless and vacuous; if you are someone who is too busy to indulge the film, you could just read the plot of 'Monster' on Wikipedia and jump headlong into the second half directly....

HIT 2 (The Second Case) Review

There are no forced elements, and the investigation track gives way to a finale. When the killer makes his appearance, we are a bit shocked but what is actually appealing is te poignancy....

Repeat Review

Their interrogation is amateurish. They don't question the novelist's randomness. There is no attempt to understand the conundrum. The cops are either callous or stock types....

Chup Review

The film critiques the critics, terrifies the reviewers in its universe, and all. It also talks about the ethicality of the reviewing phenomenon. But the star-rating system is not questioned....

Love Today Review

If ever Tollywood makes a film of this nature, it should steer clear of 'Jabardasth'-type gags and instead focus on what the meme-y era has to offer, much as this film does....

Itlu Maredumilli Prajaneekam Review

Without a dashing monologue, without a hair-raising hero-worshipping song, without a love track where the heroine admires the hero's problem-solving skills, you can't have a realistic Tollywood film....

Masooda Review

A certain novel mood is sought to be created by introducing new characters in the second half - almost all of them Muslim. The Islamic traditional attire, the Muslim names, etc. don't add anything....

Iravatham Review

Psychological crime thrillers with a back story where a key character has a mental disorder have outlived their utility. It's asinine that they are being made without any touch of novelty....

Yashoda Review

The forbidding beats of the negative characters, the sinister feel, the sense of danger go a long way in accentuating the thrills....

Aakasam Review

'Aakasam' also injects the usual elements in the form of a character suffering from a terminal illness, a shattering tragedy, a widow, a sports career, so on and so forth....

Like, Share & Subscribe Review

To make the headache all the worse, a message is delivered for no rhyme or reason. What is a socio-political narrative doing in a farcical comedy?...

Urvasivo Rakshasivo Review

In our cinema, the boy- or girl-next-door has long become a stock character. For a change, this film strips them of cinematic fluff and presents them as they are....

Banaras Review

Elements like mother sentiment and eve-teasers creeping out the heroine are resorted to. A doting dad, a pointless song on the Internet-era trolling, and such elements don't make any lasting impact....

Thaggedhele Review

When the film is raw, it takes its rawness to the extreme. An ultra-violent block can really make you puke. When the film wants to be light, it takes even its lead man too lightly....

Andaru Bagundali Andulo Nenundali Review

Like a lot of acclaimed Malayalam movies, this film too suffers from pacing issues. The storyline lends itself to building a nice dramedy but the screenplay is lacklustre....

Anukoni Prayanam Review

There are two or three married couples in the movie. In each case, one of the spouses is dead. God knows why personal loss is an ever-present motif in this movie....

Ram Setu Review

If it was built during the Ramayana, it holds a holy value to Hindus and thus can't be destroyed without offending Hindus. That's the background on which the film under review sets up its premise....

Ginna Review

From a bathtub moment to a night-time attack, from a man who gets wowed by the exposed thighs to dead bodies stashed away in refrigerators/cupboards, the film has got all sorts of random ideas....

Sardar Review

We hear of China, Pakistan, the RAW, the Indian Army, poisoning lakes, bottled water leading to terminal illnesses, a future world war revolving around water, and more....
